Most everyone on here has plenty of experience. Take your time and rebuilt your bar, knife, whatever you want to call it. You might need to replace some or all of your stone guards. I have rebuilt a few myself and when you get everything tuned up and tight a sickle bar will cut like a brand new pair of scissors. BEAUTY! This video is pretty good. Only thing is I like my rivets to come up from the bottom. Also top serrated. He needs a bit bigger hammer. Five or six wacks should do it.
